Thank you for reminding me that my dad keeps telling me to get a portable jump starter

The big advantage over jumper cables (especially if you're a woman) is that you don't have to wait for anyone, or deal with a take-charge guy who has cables but doesn't really know how to use them and won't let you do it. Same reason I used to keep a wire clothes hanger in my bumper, back in the days when it was easy to lock yourself out of your car.

Oh I see you've dealt with a man like the guy who almost set my car on fire before I snatched the jumper cables and did it the right way myself. Alright, I'm sold. I'll get one before the first snow this year.
